Students in all grade levels are working on a unit in basketball.  Students in Kin.-1st grades focus on learning to dribble the ball with control and learning how to perform a two-handed shot on baskets that are six feet in height.

Students in 2nd-5th grades work on dribbling, passing, catching, shooting, rebounding, and the basics of playing defense.  The one-handed shot is introduced in 3rd grade.  A wide variety of activities are incorporated to help develop skills.  Ball size and basket height are adjusted as appropriate for various grade levels.  Many aspects of fitness, a academics, and social skills are also built into these lessons.
